Would you like to help our VBS by making an offering
If you would like to still make a donation to either our Mission Offering or Materials Offering...
- A Material Offering will be used to offset the cost of running VBS which is in the ballpark of $5000.
- Our Mission Offering recipient for this year is Alaska Mission for Christ. This year for VBS: True North, our mission donations will support Alaska Mission for Christ! AMC is a Lutheran nonprofit that brings the love and hope of Jesus to the people of Alaska—especially in remote places where it’s hard to hear the Gospel. From kids’ programs and building projects to supporting the military and helping those in crisis, they’re making a big difference in big, snowy Alaska!
Every coin and dollar you give helps shine God’s light in the Last Frontier! - These are voluntary offerings, of course, and any amount is appreciated.
